'Qid' is an abbreviation for?

Once daily
Twice daily
Four times a day
Every other day

The correct answer is: Four times a day

Qid is an abbreviation for 'quater in die' which is a Latin term that means 'four times a day'. This means that the correct answer is C. Option A, B, and D are incorrect because they represent other timing frequencies and not quater in die. Option A stands for 'once daily', Option B stands for 'twice daily' and Option D stands for 'every other day'. These options are not used to represent the abbreviation Qid. Therefore, they are incorrect. Only Option C correctly represents the meaning of Qid.
